I really thought I'd have a novel by now, but I didn't like my narrative in The Whispering of Trees (pretty bad when I don't like my own writing!) so I took some time off, attended some online writing classes, and am now in the final (I hope) throes of a complete rewrite. It's been challenging but I hope the final product reflects how much of my heart has gone into this project. I'm anxious to finish so I can send it out to my readers for opinions, corrections, and (fingers crossed) two thumbs up per reader!

About Me

Visions of You, a young adult novel and 2013 Paris Book Festival award winner, is the freshman effort of me, C.Y. Bourgeois. After having spent countless enjoyable hours over the years reading other people's narratives, I realized that I too have stories to tell and decided to put them to paper.
I consider myself a native of Alaska, having lived there since the age of two. My husband and I moved to northern Idaho four years ago and now reside there with our two dogs and two cats. I am currently working on my second Shelby Leight novel, Visions of Mortality, as well as picking away at a few additional novel ideas.
